As the mountains opened and the jade plate moved, a wild energy storm swept in from the north. It blew past like a hurricane, causing trees to sway wildly and leaves to fly and branches to snap. It was also like a huge wave to hit people's feet. Without roots, almost ready to fall. In just an instant, it swept across the entire formation.
Then, everything calmed down in an instant, the breeze blew on my face, the flowers and plants swayed slightly, and it seemed like nothing had happened.
However, everyone felt a different change, that is, there was no spiritual energy, and there was no more spiritual energy in the entire formation.
For monks like Qingshi and the others, no spiritual energy or even air has no effect at all, but for puppets, it is completely different.
The puppets in Tianlong Continent basically use spiritual stones as their power source. To work, they must react with external spiritual energy. Therefore, in places where there is no spiritual energy, they are as useless as spiritual energy-driven magic weapons.
The military formation puppet uses spiritual stones and amethyst stones as spiritual sources, and the reaction between spiritual energy and evil spirits can produce kinetic energy. Therefore, unlike spiritual energy-driven magic weapons, they need to react with external spiritual energy to perform work. Without external spiritual energy, these puppets can still move, and their strength and speed will not be reduced much.
However, the puppet's dynamic recognition function, mutual cooperation and response and other sensory functions all need to rely on aura as a medium. Without aura, their perception of the outside world is almost completely lost.
In other words, Qingshi and his puppets can still move and fight, and can also perceive the orders given by their masters using their mental power and distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. However, they cannot accurately judge the distance and relative speed between the enemy and ourselves, and they can no longer sense each other and cooperate with each other to form a battle formation.
The result of this situation is that if you throw a toad on the ground and let a puppet chop it to death, the puppet may not be able to chop off the leg of the toad with ten or eight blows, because it cannot aim accurately.
The Puppet Flame Dragon has no eyes, but it can still maintain 70% of its perception and more than 60% of its combat power through aura. But now, without its aura, its perception and combat power cannot even reach 10%. .
In fact, this 10% combat power is impossible to achieve, because after it cannot judge distance and speed, it cannot effectively attack the enemy during battle, and may also accidentally injure its owner.
In addition, the lack of spiritual energy will also have a great impact on Qingshi's own combat power. For example, Qingshi's God-fighting circle and God-controlling circle cannot be used in an environment without spiritual energy. Although his flying sword can be activated by mental power, It can move, but without aura, its speed and strength will be greatly reduced.
Qing, Duan, Chen and Hu naturally understood the consequences of not having spiritual energy. Duan Wutian shouted: "Grandma! How is this possible?"
"Really?" Chen Tianye also looked confused, "The energy barrier of the magic circle itself is also mainly composed of spiritual energy, so how can the magic circle isolate the spiritual energy? This is very contradictory!"
"It's not isolation!" Qingshi had already understood and said, "It's consumption, constant consumption. As soon as spiritual energy appears in the formation, it will be consumed by the magic."
"Hahaha..." Lian Shankai said with a proud smile, "Master Qingda is still wise! Yes, this is my way to deal with your puppet army, how about it? Isn't it very creative? "
"It's not very creative!" Qingshi said lightly, "But to realize it, it is a very amazing technique."
"That's natural, hahaha..." Lian Shankai said with a proud smile, "This is the Burning Spirit Array. Once it is activated, it is like setting off an invisible fire, instantly burning all the people within the array. Reiki burns clean.”
"You are such a fucking genius!" Qingshi admired sincerely and cursed, "But why do you always use your intelligence to harm others?"
"No way?" Lian Shankai pretended to be surprised and said curiously, "Master Qingda, you want to educate me on my ideological and moral character?"
"Of course not," Qingshi said lightly, "There is no point in preaching to people like you. You can only use violence to get rid of them."
"Well said!" Lian Shankai said, "This world is originally about violence. Whoever has the most violence is the winner. Now, your violence machine has failed, and most of your strength has been removed. You Is there anything else to say?”
"I still underestimated you!" Qingshi said, "But I really can't figure out how you did it. Can you tell me?"
"OK!"
Lian Shankai readily agreed, because such great inventions and clever strategies must be shown off and appreciated, and Qingshi is undoubtedly the best person to show off and appreciate.
Lian Shankai said: "I spent countless efforts to create this formation without telling Mu Lao thief. The most brilliant thing about it is that it uses Mu Lao thief's air-locking formation but makes Mu Lao thief unable to do anything. aware.
"As soon as Mu Lao thief is dead, I can use it to deal with you. I only need to get Mu Lao thief's white jade formation order, and then operate the formation control panel for a quarter of an hour to make the two formations overlap. Works at the same time.”
"What a good idea!" Qingshi said.
"You are good at it!" Lian Shankai said, "I thought that once Mu Lao Zei died, you would think you had control of the overall situation and would relax your vigilance, allowing me to easily get the formation order and launch the big formation. I didn't expect you They didn't even give me a chance. If my sister and the others hadn't cried like this, and the three heads of the family, Duan, Chen and Hu, hadn't been so soft-hearted, I really wouldn't have had a chance to make a comeback."
"If you were me!" Qingshi said, "You would definitely not change your mind because of this, right?"
"That's natural." Lian Shankai said, "But you are still very cautious. Even if you promised to let us go, you still took full precautions.
"Instead of taking back the puppets, you released more puppets. You also forced me to close the air-locking formation and destroy the formation disk. You even wanted to take away the body of the old thief Mu. Fortunately, Mr. Hu took away the old thief. Before the corpse, Thirteenth Sister took away the white jade formation order.
"I have to say that I have never seen a person as sharp and rigorous as Qingda Master. I feel honored to be able to fight against you!"
"Both each other!" Qingshi said lightly, "You got the formation order, but I destroyed the formation column. How can you activate the formation?"
"It's very simple!" Lian Shankai said, "I have built another control array a long time ago. As soon as you take the lead, I will immediately grab the array order and rush there, and then it will be done."
"I understand," Qingshi said, "It's simple to say, but it's also a very amazing technique to implement. How can you make two formation disks not conflict with each other? How can you add another formation disk to make both Why can't Mu Lao thief notice it? I can't think of it."
"It cannot be said that I have my own wonderful method." Lian Shan said with a smile, "The magic methods of your Tianlong Continent are amazing, but the magic methods of our Wanshan Sea Territory are also unique. Everyone is good at what they do."
"What about this spiritual burning formation?" Qingshi asked, "How did you make the spiritual energy in the formation burn out in an instant?"
"You can't say that!" Lian Shankai said with a proud smile, "This is all the hard work of my many years of study. But, the general principle is this..."
"Let's go!" Qingshi suddenly shouted without warning, then launched his wind and thunder wings and flew into the sky, flying towards the north.
At the same time, Duan, Chen, and Hu moved like rabbits, splitting up and running into the dense forest beside the road. Only a large area of military formation puppets were left standing like wooden stakes, and the puppet Yanlong was as motionless as a sculpture.
"Hey! I haven't finished speaking yet!" Lian Shankai was stunned and shouted in the direction where the bluestone was flying. Then he shook his head and murmured, "It's really worthless..."
"What should I do?" asked a disciple.
"What else can we do?" Lian Shankai said, "Follow me!"
After Lian Shankai gave a few instructions, the disciples in green quickly divided into three teams to pursue Duan, Chen and Hu. Each team is a combination of three disciples and three-headed ghost mandrills. Lian Shankai, on the other hand, led his second disciple and four other disciples to chase Qingshi in the direction of his escape.
The second disciple, Ren Hai, had always been dissatisfied with Lian Shankai, but his master was dead, and it was Lian Shankai who planned to kill him. Only then did he realize that this senior brother, whom he had rarely seen before, was so powerful, and he immediately devoted himself to him as his master. Not to mention other disciples.
Just now, Qingshi deliberately let Lian Shankai show off, but he took the opportunity to nervously think about countermeasures. After hastily thinking of several plans, Qingshi privately sent messages to Duan, Chen, and Hu, asking them to follow his instructions to break out and follow the plan. act.
Qingshi's instructions to them were not to fight head-on, but to break out separately. Once out of pursuit, Hu Hailong will go to Lingmu Villa to see if he can catch Lian Guanyue so that he can use her to negotiate terms with Lianshan. Hu Hailong is the most powerful among the three, and only he can complete this task.
If Duan Wutian escapes the pursuit, he will have to find a weak point in the formation to break through with brute force. Although he is not a formation master, he has learned the formation breaking method and the sky-breaking axe. Even if he cannot break the formation, he must lower its defense and increase its energy consumption.
Chen Tianye's mission after getting rid of tracking is to find the location of the spiritual source of the formation, and then wait for an opportunity to destroy it. Duan Wutian and Hu Hailong were both unable to handle this task, so Qingshi could only be handed over to Chen Tianye.
As far as the three men's tasks are concerned, they are all very difficult. It is difficult to achieve the goal of getting rid of the pursuit in the first place. But Qingshi had no better way for a while.
Qingshi told Duan, Chen, and Hu that the most important thing was to ensure that they would not be caught by their opponents, because he estimated that the double formation would probably not be able to operate at full power for a long time. According to his estimate, as long as it lasted for twelve hours, this large formation would not be able to survive. The formation will have to lower its energy level, and by then, variables and opportunities may arise.
Qingshi fled to the north. After flying several hundred feet, he slowed down and looked behind him, but he did not find any pursuers. He originally thought, or rather he originally hoped, that Lianshan Kaihui would catch up with him in his jet ship Qiyun, but Lianshankai did not. Qingshi felt slightly surprised and regretful.
Within the scope of the air-locking formation, it is naturally impossible to take out a jet spaceship several feet long from the storage spiritual weapon, but that is for Qingshi and the others. Now that Lian Shankai has mastered the formation and obtained the formation order, Ordinarily he should be able to do this.
The bluestone disappeared and started to chase after him, and immediately flew down towards a dense forest.
Entering the forest, Qingshi discovered that there were actually three bone-spurred demon wolves in the forest. All of these bone-spurred demon wolves were injured. They were lurking in the forest. They were slightly frightened when they saw anyone coming and did not dare to attack. Obviously, Qingshi's cannon not only injured them, but also frightened them.
Qingshi's sword killed these evil beasts one by one. Although they have escaped and are no longer controlled by the disciples in green, after the disciples in green are free, they will definitely gather them again and continue to do evil.
Qingshi was sneaking secretly in the forest, heading northeast. The wave of energy storm just now came from the north. Based on this, Qingshi judged that the second control array was probably in the north. However, there is a mountainous area about twenty miles long to the north. Where is the specific location of the array? This is hard to find.
Nonetheless, for an array master like Qingshi, no matter how secret the control array is, there will always be some identifiable clues to be found. Insight into the mountain shape, terrain, water flow, and aura can all play a role in finding it.
As the sky grew dark, Qingshi moved forward cautiously, always alert to Lian Shankai's search. However, Lian Shankai seemed to have forgotten about him, or did he not care about him at all? The expected pursuit never came.
Qingshi stopped and walked, observing the situation. Sometimes he encountered one or two stray bone-spurred demon wolves or black wind leopards, and he would kill them without hesitation. After struggling like this all night, finally, at dawn, Qingshi locked the general position of the array column.
It was a gentle platform on this ridge, with low and sparse vegetation, and no conspicuous features. However, Qingshi was absolutely certain that the control array of the formation must be hidden there.
When the first gentle ray of sunlight hit the ridge, Qingshi came to a forest under the ridge. This ridge is not high, the vertical distance from the foot of the mountain is less than 150 feet, and the slope is relatively gentle, making it easy to climb. It's just that the trees in the valley are tall and dense, and the vegetation becomes shorter and sparse as you go up, which is not conducive to concealment. At this time, there is no aura in the valley, and the bluestone Xuanyuan Armor is almost useless. It can neither generate a defensive force field nor become invisible. , it is not easy for Qingshi to sneak into that small platform.
Qingshi was thinking about the plan of sneaking, when suddenly a sharp arrow shot out with a strong sound of wind. This was the golden arrow that opened the mountains.
Qingshi knew that he had been exposed, so he ducked to avoid the incoming arrow. Just as he was about to turn around and escape, he heard Lian Shankai's proud voice coming from the mountain: "Master Qing, why do you need to leave now that you are here? Your brothers are all here." Here at my place, don’t you want to come up and meet them? Hahahaha..."
"Qingshi, please leave us alone!" Duan Wutian's majestic voice came, "You must not fall into the trap of Lian Shankai!"
"Not bad!" Chen Tianye's voice also sounded, "Qingshi, don't come out. Only if you are not arrested can we have a glimmer of hope."
"Boss, don't fool this bastard in Lianshan," Hu Hailong's voice was a little weak, as if he was injured, "We don't regret dying, but we can't die in vain. Only if you are alive can you avenge us! You must do it You can’t come!”
"Hahahaha..." Lian Shankai said with a proud smile, "Master Qingda, I will hit you dozens of times. If you don't come out, I will cut off one of their legs. I don't believe you won't come out." Haha...ten...nine..."
